AC TrueTone : Regal tones for the masses

9 years ago

Queen. Brian May. Tie your pedal down - you may wish to do that, once you've tried it! A huge range of tones, most evocative of a certain wild haired gentleman still rocking out at the present time. In order to have the full gamut, you'll need a 'Red Special', a collection of sixpences and those particularly expressive fingers.

However. If you want to get 90% of the way to certain sounds like the above - this pedal can get you there. It's quite amazing how one little pedal (which I've tried in British, California and AC variants) can do so much - and be tuned to such different amps. OK, so the circuitry is obviously different, but the whole idea of one little pedal that can do this is - just - the Biz. All you need is a clean amp (any one will do, but if you use a clean one, then it won't affect the tones output form this little Magic Box) and you have Stadium Rock in the comfort of your own living room, or the local pub/club. All for a pittance.

You want these tones? It's a Must Buy.
